turbo removal in an integra
i was wondering if any of you were able to remove the turbo while it is positioned on the manifold. i have a drag3 kit in a RS (with air conditioning unit installed). i wanted to know if you were able to remove the turbo without taking off the manifold... or at least was able to remove the manifold and turbo without taking off the radiator.

It could be possible if you pull out the radiator but you might as well pull it off with the manifold. It'll make life a lot easier.
If you're thinking of doing it with the radiator intact..I don't see how that could be possible with the lack of space.

You could remove the turbo from the manifold, but space is limted and getting to all 4 bolts would be a problem. Just remove the manifold/turbo together and save yourself the headache. Just unbolt the downpipe, unscrew oil return, and then loosen the manifold bolts and you should easliy be able to squeeze the turbo/manifold out. You may have to turn it sideways and try different angles, but just play with it a little and it will come right out

Your lazy? Then take it out with the manifold, chancea are itll be a bitch to take it off without taking the mani off and would have been easier to just take teh mani off in the first place.

Re: turbo removal in an integra (Muckman)
hey guys... do you think its possible to drive the car with a header in place of the manifold and downpipe without disconnecting the oil line to the oil sending unit? i was wondering how that works... if oil will leak out of the oil line while driving. when i take off the turbo and manifold, i will be disconnected the oil line from the turbo... so should i remove the whole line to the oil sending unit? or can i leave it connected and just ziptie it somewhere til i put the manifold/turbo back on.

If you're confident that you can cap off the line without it leaking then you should be able to leave the oil sending line intact. Just make sure it doesn't spring a leak because it could potentially catch on fire.

well, see.. thats what i was wondering. if i would have to cap off the line... and if so, where would i get a cap to do so that would hold in place?

I remember seeing a thread a while ago about this. You should try a search and see if you can find it.
